| Popis: | Diastolic filling can be measured by radionuclide ventriculography with use of several techniques including those based on gated and list-mode acquisitions, the first-pass method, and the nuclear probe. Radionuclide ventriculography specifically assesses volumes, rates of volume change, and intervals during ventricular filling. Normal values for diastolic filling measurement vary depending on the individual radionuclide methods used and the age of the patient. Comparative studies of the radionuclide method with contrast angiographic and Doppler echocardiographic techniques for measuring diastole are discussed, and the advantages and disadvantages of the radionuclide techniques are explored. The role of radionuclide assessment of diastolic function in specific clinical examples of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, hypertension, anthracycline-induced cardiomyopathy, and coronary artery disease is reviewed. Radionuclide ventriculography is an accurate and easily applicable procedure for studying left ventricular volume changes in diastole. |
